Subject: [PATCH] Update 02_handling_connections_concurrently.md

Concurrency != Parallelism
to avoid confusion, use cooperative multitasking (async) and preemptive multitasking (threads)
 threads are not necessary run in parallel.

+Our example so far has largely presented cooperative multitasking concurrency (using async code)
+as an alternative to preemptive multitasking (using threads).
 However, async code and threads are not mutually exclusive.
 In our example, `for_each_concurrent` processes each connection concurrently, but on the same thread.
 The `async-std` crate allows us to spawn tasks onto separate threads as well.
